Product Details
- Pinups: Past and Present is a curated reference survey of the state of pinup art among contemporary graphic artists, tattooists, and cartoonists. With more than 100 artists from the United States, Europe, Australia, Japan, and China included, this collection offers an unrivaled look at every different direction pin-up art design has taken since the heady days of Bettie Page. More than 200 images from the best practitioners betray the influences of the greats, such as Gil Elvgren and Olivia De Berardinis, but also show new trends, including a revival in 1980s-influenced line work in the vein of Patrick Nagel, and of biomech-influenced approaches. Every image is accompanied by a caption detailing the artist, name of work, and major influences, making this an invaluable source of information and inspiration for all graphic artists and cartoonists in the genre. In the past, pinup women were considered to be a low bar for artists and were generally taboo in the art community. The current appeal of old pinup art is the unpretentious, often naive, and joyful whimsy that celebrates the sensuality of the women depicted. Whether they're real or imaginary, pinup women are a celebration of feminine sexuality. The sheer breadth and span of pinup art today is amazing and every major genre is represented within, including:Classic AmericanSci-Fi and FantasyCartoon and Comic BookHot RodNeo-SurrealPinups: Past and Present features the best contemporary artists, such as Enric Badia Romero, Carlos Cartagena, Fiona Stephenson, Chris Wahl, ONEQ, David Nakayama, Andrew Hickinbottom, Zach Gardia, Ben Tan, Marta Nael, Jan Meininghaus, David Vincente, Screaming Demons, Syd Brak, Loopydave, Natalie Shau, Jasmine Becket-Griffith, Elias Chatzoudis, and many more. For the pinup aficionado and artist, this non-stop, eye-popping book is an essential source of inspiration.

Erotic Photography Editorial Review
**** The book "Pinups: Past and Present" has resonated strongly with readers and has garnered a host of positive reviews, primarily due to its stunning artwork and diverse content. Customers praise the breadth of the book, which is divided into nine distinct sections that encompass a wide range of pinup styles, from classic and retro to contemporary genres like sci-fi/fantasy and dominatrix themes. The vibrant illustrations provide ample inspiration for both artists and fans, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in pinup art. Users appreciate the book not only as an artistic reference but also for its aesthetic appeal, noting its potential to enrich any coffee table collection. Many have found it to be an excellent gift choice, highlighting its unique and eclectic style that may provoke interesting conversations. The artwork is described as beautiful and stunning, and readers often find themselves captivated enough to Consider additional purchases for themselves. However, there is a notable downside pointed out by some customers. A key criticism revolves around the expectation of classic pinup artists being featured; individuals seeking works from renowned names like Elvgren or Vargas may be disappointed, as the book predominantly showcases contemporary artists. This has led to some mixed reviews, with a particular reviewer rating it significantly lower due to what they perceived as misleading content regarding the artists included. Overall, while "Pinups: Past and Present" is celebrated for its modern aesthetic and potential as a source of inspiration, those interested in classic pinup art might need to adjust their expectations. **
